ever, Is practically nothing. The famous
tower of Pisa, or Leaning Tower, 179 or
$50 feet in height, leans thirteen or four
teen feet out OF perpendicular, and its
safety has never been questioned on that
account. It was purposely "built that
way" and it may be that the capitol con-
tractor wished to indulge in the luxury OF
initiating the great Wilhelm OF Innsbruck,
who designed the Leaning Tower, to the
exteRt of three quarters OF an inch; be-
Iieving that If his sin against perpendicu-
larity and the specifications WAS dis
covered, il would be condoned by g
generous public on the ground, that like
the erring girls in Midshipman Eisy, it
"was such little one" However this
may be, it is not likely to make much
difference. I: is true that pillar Of
solid masonry, 80 feet in height, such as
this, which is to oe surmounted by 8
dome Of many toHs in weight, ough.
to be absolutely perpendicular in order
to enhance its safety, but the
slight variation in this case is so near the
desired perfection as TO amount pracIi-
cally to the same thing. Il might not be
a bad idea to increase the numerous
changes which have already taken place
in the construction CT that edifca by an
additional change which would place the
SUPPLEMENTARY Of the building in the
hands OF competent architect, % the

to pay skilled artists for services which
are already paid for to another.

Rev. D. c. KELLEY Of Nashville, whose
defense of Emma Abbott was condemned
by the Methodist conference, mas written
the following letter:
To the Members of the Board of Missions:

trust that nv supposed attitude toward theaters

| God bless you old friend. Success to you III
/ general and especially in your immigration
movement. The people are with you and wish
you God speed. NJ
TAYLOR, TEX Dec ), 1851
! To the Fort Worth Gazette, Fort Worth:
The citizens here July endorse and highly APP
| preCfate the effor- you are making uinduCe the
people and cur railroads 10 take an interest IN
bringing immigration and capital to cur state
This is work all should aEslst in; tits state
affair Gnd notlocal. MANY CITIZENS.
The above kilograms, with the action
Of the citizens of Dallas, as reported in
The GAZETTE yesterday, are but evil
dences of the deep interest taken by the
people in tn ematter of railroad aid to i'm
migration. There is no hostility to rail
roads in this desire of the people, but
Texas is simply imploring Texas rail
roads to help Texas as they are helping,
other states, and, il the Texas pool stands
in the way OF this aid, to bust that pool
SIS inimicGl to the intere SITS of both state
and railroads.
THE GAZETTE has no reason TO believe
that Texas railroads will refuse to heed
the petition of Texas people, and this pa
per suggests to the people to organize
their petition TO the roads. The citizens
of Dallas have met and passed resolu-
tons OF timely import, but THE GAZETTE
has faith in personal conference with rail
road managers in and out OF the state.
No bulky committee is necessary.
If each town would sppoint committee
OF one man supplied with data and In
vested with authority to speak for and in
behalf CT his people, to act in conjunction
with the committeeman from all other
towns, in 8 personal conference with rail
road managers at Kansas City and st.
Louis and Memphis and at some point in
Texas, TIE GAZETTE believes that 8
movement would result to the upbuilding
Of all Texas.
If the people will act promptly and liz
diligently there cannot be reason to
doubt the cooperation Of the roads, and
il the railroads will help there can be no
reason 70 doubt that the people, thus re-
inforced, will do more than ever in the
past to advertise to the world the unsur
passed opportunities offered in Texas to
investors and home seekers.
THE GAZETTE has called public stten-
ton to this matter and urged its 1mpor
lance; THE GAZETTE can Only continue
to Go this; the people are SOLICITORS and
the railroads believed to be fsvorably dis
posed; bat without action Of people and
railroads nothing can be done. Let the
people organize compact, intelligent
effort, as the first step, and the more
prompt the action of the people the more
probability Of success.
THE GAZETTE has performed its duty;
let the people and the railroad now do
what is required OF them in their own in
tereSts.

THE SUNDAY LAW.

Its Death Kn-llis Eung IN San Antonio.
Special 10 the Gazette.
SAN ANTONIO, TEX, Dc. S.-The death
knell of the Sunday Law. IN its application
to San Antonio was probably sounded to-
day. Il viii be remembered that in the
trial of three or four violstors on indict-
ment from the grand jury, the jury in
Magistrates court declared the law IN
constitutional and therefore acquitted the
accused. Since these jury veruicts there
has practically been no attention psId 10
the law, the maj 0rIty Of saloons and beer
gardens keeping wide open and dong
thriving business on Sunday. Il ten Of
the more circumspect saloon men have
observed the law strictly for fear s iury
might be empannelled which would con-
yiCt them, but JuStica Barnes set ali fears
st rest to-day by squashing indictments
ag&ipst three Sunday law violatOrs.
The indictments were drawn by the Dis
trict Attorney from formula furnished
him By the Court OF Appeals snd are pro-
nounced by able i1Tists sound il every
particular. Justice Barnes, taWeyar,
considers them faulty and fall eff Jaws,
and thus overrides one of the highest iu-
diclal tribunals of the state. The Dis
trict Attorney has become discouraged
and intimstes that he snail not attempt
to indict anybody in future
for violation Of the Sunday law
In view Of the fact thai I'll trja'5 q euch
cases must be had before q justice eli The
peace, saloon men and otGers interest
ed in the non. enforcement OF the Law are
jubilant tonight, and declare that al
drinking paaces will be kept open.

and the means Of private litigants,
has found stalwart friend at last
able and willing to take his part.
The public, lands belong to the people,
and It is the wisest policy to dispose of
them in small parcels to actual settlers,
and to nobody else. There should never
be another foot of land granted to corpo-
rations, and the terms of the grants al
ready made should be vigorously enforced
against the grantees. There has been no
act of the government since it wss
founded more impoiitic and improyident
than the reckless end unnecessary waste
and surrender Of the public domain.
